For both reference codes, the bonus money will be available for withdrawal after 30 days.

By no means ING Direct is rate leader right now as it used to be, but the bank still enjoys some advantages over other online banks, such as largest customer basis and excellent reputation. Besides, unlike other banks that run promotions once in a while and lasting only a short period of time, ING Direct’s $25 bonus offer seems to have been for ever. Therefore, even though their rates are not that great comparing to other players in this direct banking arena, ING Direct continues to attract new customers. If you are interested in getting an account with them, check out their Orange Savings or Electric Orange Checking account to find out more about what they have to offer.

And one more benefit. Once you become an ING Direct customer, you can immediately start to make money by offering your own referral links to friends and familiy members. As a customer, you can refer 25 people for both savings or checking account and earn $10 bonus for each new customer you refer. If you use all your referral links, you can make as much as $500! Not too shabby, isn’t it?

Update: If you prefer, you can simply click any of the referral links below to receive $25 bonus when funding the account with at least $250.
